Updates to MO foreign ag land ownership could be addressed outside state legislature

A state senator tells Brownfield a future ballot measure could be how Missouri addresses foreign ag land ownership.

Rusty Black sponsored one of the bills proposing changes to foreign ag land ownership in the state. He says action may not happen immediately.

“We’ve got to make sure a law or anything done to our constitution is well thought out.”

Black is one of seven state senators serving on a special committee appointed last week called the Senate Select Committee on Protection of Missouri Assets from Foreign Adversaries.
